"Sidharth!"Meera’s POV
I called him. I have no idea why but I did. What am I supposed to say abh?? Ugh.
Sidharth turned around just as fast, as if he was waiting to say.
“Hm?” he asked, trying to sound casual, but I caught that slight crack in his voice.
He looked... tired. Or maybe just frustrated, and not just with me—maybe with himself too.
Sidharth’s POV
I heard her call out just as I was about to walk away.
Her voice stopped me in my tracks, and without thinking, I turned around—too fast, maybe, like I'd been waiting for her to say my name.
Pathetic.
"Hmm?" I asked, trying to keep my voice neutral. But I knew there was a flicker of something—hope, desperation, or maybe just exhaustion—barely hidden in my eyes.
Hope for what exactly? I didn’t know. Nothing about this made sense.
I just knew that I didn’t want to leave things the way we had left them. Not with her. Not today.
She shifted on her feet, looking everywhere but at me, and I could see her struggling to find words.
"Uh…umm R-Rohan was calling you earlier," she finally stammered.
For a moment, all I could do was stare at her, trying to make sense of the strange ache that settled in my chest.
That's it?
That’s why she called me?
I knew it was nothing—just a stupid excuse—but hearing it still stung more than I cared to admit.
"Oh," I said, the weight of disappointment pressing down on me like a heavy stone. I tried not to show it, but I knew she saw it anyway.
"Also umm, thank you " She said hesitating but before I could respond she went away.
I groaned, I was messed up.
Flashback
The night earlierHer hands were under my shirt, soft and cold, brushing against my skin like she belonged there.
My breath hitched, and I knew I should stop this—pull away, say something, anything.
But my hands stayed rooted to her waist, gripping her like she’d disappear if I let go.
I shouldn’t care this much. Why do I care this much?
This wasn’t about lust anymore, and that scared the hell out of me.
Her lips, her skin, everything about her was intoxicating.
It was dangerous how easily I could lose myself in her, and I hated that.
When her hand fumbled at the button of my pants, I gritted my teeth, a curse slipping under my breath.
My body responded instantly, wanting her more than anything.
